The Fair Share Report

331 Union Ave

Middlesex, NJ 07202

The town corrects for market drift once a year — but only on average. This report measures whether this house drifted with the herd or away from it.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $609,067

Likely range $548,072 – $674,194, from 12 comparable Middlesex sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,870 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.52%

The state's official measure of how far Middlesex assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $609,067 home should be assessed near $593,962.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$517,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $76,862 below what the ratio math suggests (12.9%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Middlesex home

$2.119 per $100 assessed

$1.137 Schools · 54% $0.340 County · 16% $0.643 Town · 30%

This home's own bill implies $1.830 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$9,464/yr
Public schools$5,076
Middlesex County$1,518
Town of Middlesex$2,870

Paying about right
